[Bug 872701] Re: Not possible to enter correct password after screen lock
Hi, I've just had enough of doing CTRL-ALT-F1 login, kill gnome- screensaver etc., to look more into this and can confirm that, at least for me: With two keyboard layouts (layout1 and layout2) 1) lock the screen with CTRL-ALT-l 2) touch mouse to bring up screensaver dialog 3) switch keyboard layout to layout2 (and note keyboard indicator indicates layout change) 4) enter password *as if layout1 was active* [1] 5) screen is unlocked 6) switch back to layout1 Repeat, but this time skip step 3 - screen is still unlocked. That is, it seems that although the screensaver dialog indicates that it changes the layout - it is always using the one layout. Brian can you confirm this? If I get a chance, I'll take a look at the source and see if there's something I can pick off. [1] I had to type it in to an editor as I only know the keystrokes using layout2 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/872701 Title: Not possible to enter correct password after screen lock To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/872701/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 872701] Re: Not possible to enter correct password after screen lock
Has there been any update on this defect? I have a fresh install of Ocelot, and have the same outputs as Michael for * gnome-screensaver --debug * ls -l /etc/shadow * ls -l /dev/null I have 4 layouts set up that I switch between using double-shift: * English (international AltGr dead keys) * English (programmer Dvorak) * English (US) * English (Dvorak) My default layout for the login screen is programmer Dvorak. If I lock the screen manually using Windows + L, and I type the same password (at least as far as keystrokes), regardless of the layout chosen, I cannot log in. However, if I click Switch User, I am back at the initial login screen, where my password works fine. Therefore, clicking Switch User and entering the correct password there seems to be a workaround. I can provide any other logs or information required as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/872701 Title: Not possible to enter correct password after screen lock To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/872701/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

The following log is from: 1) lock screen 2) When password prompt appears, switch keyboard layout to correct layout for entering password, enter password (fails) 3) Switch back to original layout and try again (fails) 4) kill via tty (where same password is used to login) http://paste.ubuntu.com/707329/ It seems that it really is getting an incorrect password - one possibility that could make sense would be if the keyboard layout was being applied incorrectly.
